    And so we can expect another petrol price increase next month, I hear it is going to be about 32 cents.

    When petrol goes up so does food, they are interconnected. I think it time to ask the boss that dreaded question.

    Global recession is once again hitting headlines but according to our minister of finances everything is hunky-dory. When I listened to the "speech" I nearly cried and yet people where clapping hands and cheering?

    I think March to April is going to be hell on our local economy as we cannot attract new money and once again there was no mention of any type of refinery of any kind.

    Can our minister of finances not see that our export market needs work? Unrefined materials has no benefit to us as a Nation! Also we are MORE import dependent thus more money is going out then coming IN.

    We need fabrication facilities refineries and low cost product export. Or we are screwed!

    Yea, tell that to our unions and werkers, after all, according to them, the wekers are all being paid a pittance when you compare it to the CEOs. The sh!t is on the horizon, and coming at us at the speed of a sandstorm. So why do we need creative captains, they are all to expensive according to the unions, they can do abetter job with out them.

    If you consider how much money is spend on bullshit I am surprised that we are still floating. The unions are making a handful every month why don't they start something like a refinery or factory or both. Why is job creation limited to the public, the wealthy and government?

    Perhaps it is time for unions to do more than just talk?

    It is SCARY what the Rand drop and gold price rise has done to Jewellery prices.

    A client of mine asked for a new valuation on jewellery I insure for him. Professional did it - the items have risen between 250% and 400% in value in 3.5 years.....

    Serious effect if jewellery is lost/stolen, and you need to replace it!

    I don’t get it why do we need to buy petrol from other countries when we are perfectly capable to make it ourselves? Does anyone still remember what it is that SASOL do?
